Subject: [PATCH RFC v3 02/19] mm: add folio_zero_user stub for configs without THP/HUGETLBFS
Date: Tue, 21 Apr 2026 18:01:16 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <2c8e630afa8b68232d648c08eec4b2fc7d933dc1.1776808210.git.mst@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1776808209.git.mst@redhat.com>

folio_zero_user() is defined in mm/memory.c under
CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE || CONFIG_HUGETLBFS.  A subsequent patch
will call it from post_alloc_hook() for all user page zeroing, so
configs without THP or HUGETLBFS will need a stub.

Add a macro in the #else branch that falls back to
clear_user_highpages(), which handles cache aliasing correctly on
VIPT architectures and is always available via highmem.h.

Without THP/HUGETLBFS, only order-0 user pages are allocated, so
the locality optimization in the real folio_zero_user() (zero near
the faulting address last) is not needed.
